"HONEY! Speak your truth—LOUDLY, UNAPOLOGETICALLY!"

Written by Dear Black Woman Malika

“HONEY! Speak your truth—LOUDLY, UNAPOLOGETICALLY! Stop holding yourself back out of fear. WALK. CRAWL. RUN. LEAP. JUMP. DAMN NEAR SASHAY IF YOU HAVE TO—BUT BABY GIRL…MOVEEEE!”

OH, BABY GIRL! How did you get here? Did you forget that you have the power to change your life? Those habits of self-destruction you are practicing will do what they are designed to do—how many more warnings do you need? 

You have everything in you, that you need to be who God created you to be.

MY DEAR! Learning to love yourself is the single-best thing you can do right now. When you recognize and use the gifts the ancestors passed down to you, you will stop accepting false notions of love and security. No matter how much the world is pressuring you, NEVER settle. If you want God’s best, you have to be patient enough to trust him for it. 

You have everything in you, that you need to be who God created you to be.

HONEY! Speak your truth—LOUDLY, UNAPOLOGETICALLY! Stop holding yourself back out of fear. WALK. CRAWL. RUN. LEAP. JUMP. DAMN NEAR SASHAY IF YOU HAVE TO—BUT BABY GIRL… MOVEEEE! 

You have everything in you, that you need to be who God created you to be.

BELOVED! You are divine and unstoppable. Find God in yourself and LOVE HER FIERCELY.
